New Benchmarks Of OpenSolaris, BSD & Linux

Phoronix: New Benchmarks Of OpenSolaris, BSD & Linux

Earlier today we put out benchmarks of ZFS on Linux via a native kernel module that will be made publicly available to bring this Sun/Oracle file-system over to more Linux users. Now though as a bonus we happen to have new benchmarks of the latest OpenSolaris-based distributions, including OpenSolaris, OpenIndiana, and Augustiner-Schweinshaxe, compared to PC-BSD, Fedora, and Ubuntu.

Comment

I would like to see benchmarks on LARGE servers. Solaris has always been targeting large servers with hundreds of CPUs and many many drives and much RAM. Linux has always been developed on desktop PCs and targeting 2-4 cpu servers.

If there where benchmarks on large servers with many drives and many cpus, we would see that Linux is far behind Solaris.

The above post only confirms what I say. But that is only a measly 16 disk drives involved. I would want to see benchmarks with 48 drives, or 96 drives or more.

If we would see HPC benchmarks then Solaris could go home then. Wait a minute, it already did!

It shows zfs was faster then btrfs in this configuration, nothing more.
